Doggy Day Care in Cornelius

“My pup had the best time with Nancy, Coffee & family. The fenced in yard was great for her to run around off leash & I felt very comfortable leaving Winnie in Nancy’s care. Winnie played fetch & even received a special treat. Nancy’s family is very friendly & Winnie is excited about her next visit!! Well.. after her long nap! Haha.”

About: I’ve always been someone that animals naturally warm up to because I’m calm, patient, attentive, and consistent. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My background has taught me the importance of routines, observation, patience, and communication, which translates really well into caring for pets with different temperaments and needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, shy pets, senior animals who need a gentler pace, and pets who may need extra reassurance or structure. I pay close attention to details like feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and behavior changes, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel connected and reassured while your pet is in my care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having calm company around, I’ll make sure they receive reliable, loving, and personalized care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I plan my schedule carefully so pets receive consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship without feeling rushed. I’m flexible with mornings, evenings, weekends, and check-ins throughout the day when needed. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can quickly notice if something seems off or if a pet needs extra comfort or patience. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and feeding areas are secure at all times, and I always keep pets supervised during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners feel reassured and connected while their pets are in my care.

“My Winston absolutely loves it at Kim’s house! He just struts right in like he owns the place. Her pups couldn’t be any sweeter & we feel so lucky we found her . Thanks Rover for making this so easy.”

“Carol is so sweet. I feel like I’m leaving my beagle with someone who loves him. He is so relaxed at her house. The first day, when it was time to go, he went over and sat down next to her like he was saying, “I’ll just stay here.” ❤️ She will be top on our list when needing daycare or boarding!”

“Really appreciate the last minute help! Kelsey took great care of Oswald and kept the high energy boy entertained and happy. Thanks Kelsey!”

About: I'm an active, work from home dog (and people) dad with a fenced yard and breaks throughout the day to get all the two- and four-legged steps in. Happy to open our home to a few new furry friends to compliment our Aussie/Beagle mix and Jack Russell mix. We have a clean, smoke free home properly appointed for dogs with a fenced back yard and another Rover approved adult (my wife) as a work from home dog (and people!) mom too. Access to nearby greenways and a nice suburban neighborhood for all the walks and maybe an occasional run or two if your pup is up for it. I am a strategic business consultant with long blocks of uncommitted time throughout the day where I can provide walks and entertainment for your pup. Dogs are welcome to be my work buddies in our finished mother-in-law suite turned into an office above the garage. Ample access to the fenced backyard and a couple of built in playmates with our well-mannered Aussie/Beagle and Jack Russell mixes. We have a fenced yard with a doggie door leading from the main home. Dogs will also be restricted to the first floor of our home (no steps required for entry!) which is properly set up for pet care as we have 2 dogs of our own. My wife (also a Rover approved sitter) and I both work from home and are active people who love taking walks throughout the day. Clean, smoke-free home and happy to make reasonable accommodations for your pet upon request Just ask!

About: I also invite friends that don’t have fenced in backyards to bring their small dogs to play in our fenced in backyard. No charge! Love small dogs. So sad that our last dog, a Cavalier passed away recently. I am home almost all the time. Dogs are never alone. I would treat them as lovingly as we have treated our deceased dogs. Cuddling with dogs is good therapy for them and us humans. We so miss all of our previous dogs. :( I am also experienced with dogs with disabilities such as totally blind and deaf. I am almost always home so pets are never home alone. We were so saddened by the recent death of our beloved Cavalier. Working with Rover has given me more dogs to love and cuddle. We have a home with a fenced in backyard, I would treat every dog as if it were my own. Love to take dogs on walks and play with them in the house and outside.

About: Flexible schedule and lots of experience with dogs & cats of all ages. Reliable, professional and caring. Pets all have their own personalities and I’ll take the time to get to know yours. For visits in your home I can also provide services such as bringing in the mail, watering plants, etc. Goal is to have repeat clients who can depend on us. Hope to meet you and your pet soon! Flexible hours and work from home. Plenty of time and the ability to adjust to your pet’s schedule/needs. Can help with medication if needed also. Lots of loving attention and playtime. Can provide pick up and drop off also. Condo home on the first floor with green space. Central Cornelius.

About: I’ve watched and handled dogs for over a decade, and have the experience and strength to control large or energetic pets. I keep extensive notes on medical needs, diet, commands, and personality quirks for all the pets I watch so I can be sure they get the best care possible. I work part time, but my schedule is fairly flexible. I have a car and can travel to your home to watch and walk your pet, or take you pet to my home (as long as your dog is ok with other dogs). I live in a a fairly calm neighborhood with lots of sidewalks and grassy to take your pets to, and can walk your pet multiple times per day. I will also send you pictures of your pet with every visit or throughout the day so you're kept in the loop of how your pet is doing.

“Michele was amazing with my sweet girl. Edith can be a big handful but she was treated wonderfully. Michele was also very accommodating to my specific logistical needs and made sure that my friends picking Edith up were the right people. I would definitely use Michele again!”

“Ashley was great with our little dog and she made a new friend with Prissy her sweetheart. Regular updates which was much appreciated as we have never left our little girl.

About: I have 25+ years of all animal care! All ages! All types! I have worked in rescue with all types of animals as well as having a myriad of breeds and ages myself! I have cared for bottle babies to hospice and an excited to care for your baby just as you would if your could have them with you! I currently work out of the office so if needed, I can work from home or work from my rented office space and drop in when needed! Weekends for me are free as I have one child in college and one that is not interested in hanging with mommy! I have a fenced in yard (wood privacy) that my dogs love to run in and your fur-baby will too! I love to cuddle if your dog likes that or play ball or frisbee if they need to get the energy out! Don't worry.....you will have plenty of pictures for those fun shots that will set your mind at ease. (I'm a pet parent so I totally get it!)

About: I have such a love and passion for all animals! I have experience with pets of all ages, shapes, and sizes and can administer medication. I am retired so I have plenty of time to care for your furbabies! It’s wonderful not having any sort of set schedule now because it allows me to be available on weekdays and weekends. I live in an apartment with my dog and two cats so any pet coming to visit would need to be ok not being the only baby. I do have a large crate if needed.

“Joyce is amazing! She is responsive and will take good care of your baby. I’m definitely using her again. My dog loved her, and she was accommodating with last-minute changes. I highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up on a farm since I was 5 years old. Taking care of all our animals including cats and dogs. I even trained one of our dogs to do tricks. While you’re dog is with me they will have 110% of my attention the whole time. We will have fun and be back safe. When they are with me they will feel loved and safe. I will do everything in my power to make sure they are having fun and maybe teach new tricks. If you’re dog is with me for a day or longer I will be with them the whole time going on walks, playing, and having fun. I will follow every directions you have for me to take care of your animal.

I go above and beyond to make sure both you and your pet’s feel comfortable and at ease while you are apart. Brody is my 12 year old yellow Labrador and we walk six to seven times a day. Brody is very gentle, sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. Brody has never met a stranger. Brody and I are willing to set up a met and greet, if you would like. I work from home so, I am flexible with my time. Also, I have experience with senior and rescue dogs. I can administer oral med’s, if need be. I work from home, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pup’s. I am available for Doggie Daycare after 8:30 am. Also, I am available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 8:30 am. Brody and I live in a safe and wonderful community with great walking trails and a fenced in dog run. Lots of places to explore and play.
